2 Timothy 4:3 in Context — 2 Timothy 4
1 Portanto te convoco diante de Deus e do Senhor Jesus Cristo, que irá julgar os vivos e os mortos em sua aparição e seu reino:
2 prega a palavra; insiste em tempo e fora de tempo; mostra os erros; repreende [e] exorta, com toda paciência e ensino.
3 Pois virá tempo em que não suportarão a sã doutrina; em vez disso, terão comichão no ouvido e amontoarão para si instrutores conforme os seus próprios desejos maus;
4 desviarão os ouvidos da verdade, e se voltarão aos mitos.
5 Tu, porém, vigia-te em todas as coisas; suporta as aflições, faz a obra de evangelista, cumpre o teu serviço.
